Synopses & Reviews

Review:

Boston GlobeHaunting....has something of value to say to all of us.

Review:

John FowlesA remarkable book, both biologically absorbing and humanly rich, and one that should be read by every ecologically concerned American.

Review:

Whitley Streiber

Washington Post

Brilliant...a work of intelligence, dedication and beauty, deserving the widest possible attention not only for the sake of wolves but also for the sake of men.

Review:

Bayard WebsterNew Fork Times Book ReviewFascinating....His book has a wealth of observation, mythology and mysticism about wolves that adds a colorful part to the still unfinished mosaic that defines the wolf.

Review:

Robert KirschLos Angeles TimesUnusually informative and sensitive.

Review:

George SchallerAnimal KingdomOf Wolves and Men is not only the best popular account of an animal I have read in a long time, but also something new — a bridge between books of the past and those of the future, which, it is hoped, will incorporate and expand the perceptions so eloquently treated here.

Review:

Edmund FullerWall Street JournalA splendid, beautiful book.
